Course Description
API 570 - Piping Inspection Code is an inspection code developed and published by the American Petroleum Institute (API). The inspection code covers in-service inspection, rating repair, and alteration of metallic and fiberglass-reinforced plastic (FRP) piping systems and their respective pressure relieving devices. By the end of this program, participants will be able to perform maintenance, inspection, alteration and repair of in-service metallic piping systems.
Course Objectives
- Providing a continued high level of safety through the use of inspectors specialized in process piping
- Improving management control of process unit inspection, repair, alteration and rerating
- Reducing the potential for inspection delays resulting from regulatory requirements
- Gaining knowledge and expertise required for maintenance, rating, inspection, repair and alteration of inservice process piping system
- Gaining knowledge of API publications and other international standards
